Facilities Management is a multi-disciplinary profession that ensures functionality of the built environment by integrating people, place, process and technology.
Facilities Management takes into account the impact of the buildings’ use, performance, and support services upon people and the workplace. It ensures that everything is available and operating properly for building occupants to do their work conveniently and efficiently. Concerned with the effective planning, design, management, maintenance and adaptation of building stock, facilities management is a highly regarded profession that responds to the needs of institutions and as such, it contributes hugely to the growth of a nation.
